Wrong (jumbled up) icons in Favorites

[geordief]

This seems very minor to me personally but is it a bad sign for the computer and the OS?

What I am talking about is , when I have a new tab opened , then the icon that sits in the tab at the top of the page will belong to another site.
For example, if I have a page on the BBC site open it will have an icon showing in the tab that it has stolen from Ebay (which is another site that I have in Favorites)

The last time I noticed this effect my computer was in serious trouble and I ended up doing a complete reinstall where I wiped all my data.

That was a month or so ago and so I am surprised this phenomenon should be cropping up again so soon .
Maybe it is just a common weakness in Windows 7 and so ,not to worry unduly?

I wouldn't say it is a bad sign for the PC or the OS. It isn't hard for a browse or the favicon, the item in question, to not be viewed properly all the time. This site's favicon doesn't display properly for me in most browsers. I still get the old one. The thing you can try is to flush out your browsers cache.

thanks.
Well I don't think I will bother sorting it out if it is such a minor problem.
